Practice Plus Group continue their digital journey with IMS MAXIMS by upgrading sites to latest version of MAXIMS EPR


Practice Plus Group (PPG), a loyal customer of IMS MAXIMS, started their digital transformation journey with us in 2006 by successfully implementing MAXIMS Electronic Patient Record Solution (EPR) across multiple sites. The Southwest Treatment Centre sites were among the first sites to launch MAXIMS EPR.

Fast forward to June 2023, where five sites continued to operate with a competitor’s software, PPG made the strategic decision to migrate these remaining sites to MAXIMS EPR, meaning all PPG hospitals and diagnostic centres were using MAXIMS EPR. The project to synchronised go-live across these five sites simultaneously was a huge undertaking and marked a remarkable achievement for PPG reflecting on the collaborative efforts and meticulous planning invested in the migration process.

Moving forward to 2024, all PPG sites will undergo an upgrade to the latest version of MAXIMS EPR, which will bring a magnitude of advantages. Standardising the latest version of the solution ensures consistency in features, functionality, and security protocols, streamlining maintenance and support processes.

We will also collaborate with a partner portal to introduce a remote self-referral process. This innovative approach aims to facilitate a seamless self-referral and appointment management system, bringing PPG closer to their patients. The implementation of this collaborative portal underscores our dedication to leveraging technology for the betterment of healthcare delivery, providing convenience and accessibility to both healthcare providers and patients.

Over the past 18 years, the collaborative partnership between PPG and IMS MAXIMS has undergone an exceptional evolution, from the initial implementation of MAXIMS EPR at select PPG sites to the adoption of the solution across all sites. As PPG continues to evolve in the digital landscape, we will continue to support in driving continuous improvement and achieving excellence in healthcare delivery.
